# MyFitnessPal
> Connect MyFitnessPal accounts to Junction by configuring diary sharing with the required locked with key privacy setting.
## Connecting MyFitnessPal to Junction
You can now link MyFitnessPal accounts to Junction! You can do this with the Junction Link Widget or programmatically like other [password](/api-reference/link/link-password-provider) providers.
## Before Connecting
You can share your MyFitnessPal diary with Junction by locking your diary with a key.
* Go to [your diary settings](https://www.myfitnesspal.com/account/diary-settings) and click **locked with key**.
On mobile, head to *MyFitnessPal > More > Settings > Diary Settings > Diary Sharing*.
* Pick a key of your choice and save your changes.
You can now use the key and your MyFitnessPal username when linking with Junction via the widget or programmatically.
## Junction Widget
To connect your device with the *widget*, follow the link wizard and enter your username and key.
Please note when linking programmatically that the **password** required in the payload
is the **locked key** you set in your [diary settings](https://www.myfitnesspal.com/account/diary-settings).
```bash cURL theme={null}
curl --request POST \
--url {{BASE_URL}}/v2/link/provider/password/my_fitness_pal \
--header 'Accept: application/json' \

{
